Ok I will start by saying the product itself was very good. The cake (we ordered a Hello Kitty one for our 3 year old) was adorable and it tasted great.
And the staff at the location we picked the cake up at were also great. Helpful and friendly and boy did they feel awful when we came in, with a little one in tow, and there was no cake for us.
I followed the online instructions. Picked our closest location. Personalized the cake and ordered. Unfortunately the order never made it to the actual restaurant. The staff was so apologetic and called the manager trying to figure out what went wrong but the bottom line is it wasn't their fault. The online system failed.
They had the cake ready to go the next day for us. They were more than willing to do it right then and there but we weren't in a panic so the next day was fine.
So, we will not order online again but we will go to the store and do it in person.

When my husband and I decided to start trying to get pregnant I went to the drugstore to look at fertility tests. The price of fertility (as well as pregnancy) tests off the shelf is absolutely ridiculous!!!! I just could not spend that kind of money on something I knew was really just paper to pee on and doesn't cost that much to produce. So, I went online and found early-pregnancy-test.com.
The products they sell are fabulous. No fancy, unnecessary packaging or gimmicks, just simple, easy to use and easy to read tests for a fraction of the price as the fancy tests in the drugstore. I immediately ordered some tests as well as some other fertility products. The shipping was extremely reasonable and extremely fast (to Canada). I couldn't have been happier. Everything worked exactly how it should and 3 months later I was pregnant!
I HIGHLY recommend this site for anyone who is looking for fertility tests or other fertility products (pre-seed is awesome and so is FertileCM). Fancy and expensive does not mean better! You do not need to spend a fortune for simple tests!

I will always remember the morning we brought my daughter (she was about 5 months) downstairs and she spotted this in the living room. It was pure delight!! She loved this exersaucer right from the start. I finally had to find it a new home when she was just too big for it, but she would have played with it forever had I let her.
This is well made, a reasonable price compared to other similar toys, and was great for infant development.
The only complaint I have is that one of the "toys" attached to it (the tall one that sort of looks like a flower) I found to be a little sharp and not all that baby friendly. Luckily you can actually buy additional attachments for this model so I simply bought one of those and replaced the piece I didn't like.

Bumbo Floor Seat
I was given this as a gift and have to say I would never buy it myself or for anyone else. My daughter never looked comfortable in this chair (even though she was old enough and developed enough to use it) and just tried her best to get out of it... +
I was given this as a gift and have to say I would never buy it myself or for anyone else.
My daughter never looked comfortable in this chair (even though she was old enough and developed enough to use it) and just tried her best to get out of it. It became more of a hazard than something actually useful.
The tray is a waste of money as it doesn't stay on very securely.

I have been using mineral foundation for years and it is the only foundation I will wear. I've tried quite a few brands. Until now Avon has been my favorite (and I still think it's good) but the Revlon Aqua hands down beats them all.
One of the biggest challenges has been to find the right shade and I found the perfect match in this foundation. The coverage is fantastic. It goes on easily and smoothly. It also stays on all day (one of the reasons I love mineral powder foundation) and gives my skin a subtle glow. I have very sensitive skin and normally can't wear foundation with sunscreen in it but I have no problems with this one.

Benefit Cosmetics They're Real! Mascara
Overall I rate this mascara as not bad. I do like the wand, it's the perfect size and makes the mascara easy to apply and to get those small corner lashes. It goes on pretty well, not clumpy and one coat will do in a hurry or for a less dramatic... +
Overall I rate this mascara as not bad. I do like the wand, it's the perfect size and makes the mascara easy to apply and to get those small corner lashes. It goes on pretty well, not clumpy and one coat will do in a hurry or for a less dramatic look.
A little pricey for the end result but if I saw it on sale I would pick up more of this.

I've only placed one order so far but it was perfect. Ordered a pair of shoes. The price was great. The shipping was quick and reasonable (included all duty, etc. to ship to Canada so there was no surprises at the door) and the shoes are awesome. Great quality and perfect fit. Will definitely order again. -
Maybelline New York Superstay 14 Hour Lipstick

This is one of the best "lasting" lipsticks that I have tried. It isn't super shiny (which means it isn't super sticky either) but it also doesn't leave you with that dry caked on feeling that other lasting lipsticks can. It holds up very well. Certainly not 14 hours but if I put in on first thing in the morning before work it lasts through my morning tea and usually lunch as well which is far better than any others I've used. The smell is great too. -
Pantene Pro-V Medium-Thick Hair Solutions Shampoo

I use to love Pantene and then several years ago they changed their formula and I had to stop using it. I recently received a sample and gave it another try. It was not good. This shampoo leaves my hair dull and my scalp flaky. It doesn't matter how well or long I rinse I always get the same results. No other shampoo does this to me. -

I put off trying this for a long time because I couldn't find it in unscented. However, a couple of weeks ago I finally came across the unscented version and decided to try it.
So far it's awesome. My clothes are coming out of the dryer soft and static free with no unwanted scent. Works great even in a huge load of bedding No more dryer sheets to pick up or throw out!!
I've only been using it for a couple of weeks now so I can't yet comment on how long it lasts. They aren't cheap but if they do last up to 3 months (as advertised) then the price is comparable to buying the dryer sheets.
